    The Rinnentorturm, often referred to as the Rinnentor, is a gate tower and cultural monument in Bensheim an der Bergstraße. The Rinnentorturm is a remnant of the medieval city fortifications that were built in the 13th and 14th centuries to secure the city of Bensheim. The Rinnentor, it is assumed today, was intended to secure the western outflow of the Lauter out of the city.
